December 2018​I started a new job at The Greenspire School teaching World Language this fall. It has been a ton of fun and I am getting to know all the students and their interesting stories. We have celebrated Dia de los Muertos and will be learning about the Spanish traditions of Christmas and New Year's.

WHY did I choose Left Foot Charley for the party?As in all things, there is a story within a story.My Michigan family once had a cherry orchard. In 2014, they decided that turning those orchards into vineyards as a retirement "hobby” would be fun. Those grapes grew, were happy with the soil and the vintner, Bryan Ulrich, at Left Foot Charley made wines with those grapes that were so yummy, that they crowned the first crop of Blaufränkisch grapes with the Jefferson Cup award. (Click here for the Wall Street Journal article.)Luck would have it that last fall's grapes have been used for a newly released: 2017 Rosé.
